To all:

Home Depot putting an interesting spin on e-commerce:

redherring.com

Because Home Depot's inventory is stocked in local stores, Homedepot.com won't have a central warehouse. There's another big difference from many other online retailers: Homedepot.com's sales will be same-store sales, which analysts use to gauge the health of brick-and-mortar retailers. Home Depot is aiming to "effectively turn e-commerce into a marketing and transaction-generating tool for its retail stores," Ms. Tonneson says.

Good investing!
